FAQ
Can I display several stocks in one widget?
Definitely! You can show multiple tickers at once – for example, Apple, Tesla, and the S&P 500 – all in one smooth feed. Great for comparing or showcasing a portfolio.
Do I need coding skills to install it?
No coding required! It’s a simple copy-and-paste process. Just insert your Elfsight code into a Custom HTML block, and you’re done – no developer needed.
Will this affect my website speed?
Not at all. The widget loads asynchronously, meaning your website stays fast while the stock data updates independently in the background.
Can I customize how it looks?
Of course! You can easily tweak colors, fonts, and sizes to match your WordPress design. Think of it like dressing your widget to fit your brand’s style.
